Omofunaab2: He fought for our independence for 3 years against unbelivable odds. That alone means much more to Igbos than anyrhing else. Staying back to die at the end of the war is something that Nigerians wished on him, but not his people. 5 Likes |

fk001: Don't be too quick to judge, this man started very well too and in fact he declared a biafra that started printing their own money and used the pound. Ojukwu too NIgeria by storm and went to war which he lost. YOU ARE SHOUTING BIAFRA TODAY BECAUSE OF THIS MAN. someone laid the foundation. You are a disgrace! You don't even know that for a building, someone must lay a foundation why another build on it. 1 Like |

attackgat: Are u kidding ? He led over three million people to their death when he had the chance to back out and you are saying why will he be slaughtered for the same reason? Hitler led his people to war , and when he lost, he didn't run into exile when he had to chance to hand over to his power hungry junior, he killed himself for the course . Mussolini led his people to war, and when he was initially arrested and overthrown, he broke out of jail and went back to war instead of running into exile . Ojukwu was losing the war, he handed over a Biafra he dreamt of to Effiong and fled . in other words, don't start a course you can't sacrifice your life for 39 Likes 1 Share |

Modsenemy: Listen, fact 1: Most Igbos are not bitter at Ojukwu for leading them in a war of freedom despite all we lost. If it isnt paining us he led, why is it paining you people he did not lead? Second fact: what Hittler and Mussolini were fighting for was a direct opposite of what Ojukwu fought for. While Ojukwu was fighting to liberate his people from Nigeria, Hittler and Mussolini were fighting to subjugate other people. Ojukwu fought for freedom, Hittler fought to enslave. After 3 years, when it was no longer possible to continue, Ojukwu left the scene which ushered in peace. The only thing that would have been achieved by Ojukwu staying back to be killed would have been to give Nigeria sweet victory. By leaving, Ojukwu denied Nigeria that victory and lived to a ripe old age. On his death, he recieved the greatest funeral ever witnessed in Nigeria. Ojukwu had the last laugh 5 Likes |

attackgat: No offense , but you make less sense with this post. The point is, those people led their people to war for whatever reason and gave their life for it . They stood till death for the course they established . It doesn't change the fact that Ojukwu fled when he technically led his people to death. Heroes make sacrifices even with their life . Onwuateagwu and Azuchie who followed Ojukwu to the airport should have fled too. As a matter of fact, they could be shot dead , but they stayed back and watched their master run. According to obasanjo's account of Onwuateagwu's death, he launched a final attack on nigerian troop and got killed . 24 Likes |

Modsenemy: You are making a mistake, Hittler fought a war of agression to create a German empire. When Germany was about to lose the war, he shot himself. Hittler had no other choice. There was no country he could have gone to and the world would not have been looking for him. Mussolini was captured and killed as he tried to escape. These men did not give their life ti anything, death was their way out of a tight situation Ojukwu on the other hand flew into exile, was warmly recieved. While in exile, he became an international business man and travelled all over Europe and America a free man except in Nigeria Effiong had nothing to fear, he called for a cease fire to armed struggle. He was just no 2 man and and not hated as much as Ojukwu. Effiong contacted Obasunjo and told him they were ready to throw in the towel and that was it. If Ojukwu had done that, he would have faced firing squad. Onwuatuegwu was just someone who refused to accept that the war was over. He should have melted into the bushes and reappared when the coast was clear just like other Biafran commanders did. But he had other plans. Heroes fight for their cause, but if that cause is facing certain defeat, there is no point throwing ones life away if it will make no difference. 1 Like |
